My Great Father and Mentor picked pieces of me off the Autumn Laden streets of Manhattan at the turn of the Millenium, and with unconditional love, he sewed and stitched endlessly till I reached a dynamic relative measure of perfection.

Affirmative Action is Going to Cost Me my Job... And I'm a Minority!

Oh wait, I'm Asian. Even though my parents came from a Third World Totalitarian country getting paid in food rations, somehow, Asians don't count when it comes to Affirmative Action, because we don't BITCH and MOAN enough, and aren't LAZY enough. Well, I'll start bitching and slacking then, if that's what it takes. If you hire Asians to work the subway system in NYC, there would be NO DELAYS. I guarantee it would cut DELAYS DOWN about 95%. And that would be worth the rate hike. Fucking raising prices for more incompetence again...

I can't talk about you not being able to bitch about being considered a disadvantaged minority because I'm a disadvantaged member of the majority--my opinion, apparently, is irrelevant.

Here's an interesting article about how race-based initiatives have actually hurt their intended beneficiaries:

Incidentally, I think your issues with the MTA arise more from the fact that it is a government agency than its employees getting their jobs based on quotas. All the big government folks crack me up; the government can fuck up a cup of coffee, but they want them to run healthcare and redistribute wealth in the interest of "fairness."
